A message from DG Debbie High
District Debbie High is honored and delighted to announce that, unofficially, we have a new District Governor for the year 2019-2020. The District 5930 District Governor Nominating team has chosen Ellison Crider of the Corpus Christi Evening Rotary Club. 
 
Congratulations to Ellison and to his wife Fay. Ellison is a 30 year Rotarian who is currently serving as the District 5930 Rotary Foundation Chair. Ellison and wife own E Enterprises, LLC, dba Buddy’s Home Furnishings since September 2014. They have two stores franchised as Buddy’s Home Furnishings, Corpus Christi and Robstown.
 
DG Debbie welcomes Ellison to the District 5930 Leadership Team of DGE Betty Ramirez-Lara (2017-2018, McAllen North) and DGN Andy Hagan (2018-2019, Brownsville Sunrise).
 
Rotary International rules impose a 14-day challenge time. If there are no challenges Ellison Crider will be officially declared DGND (District Governor Nominee Designate).

Get Ready Laredo and surrounding clubs!!
Our Lt. Gov of Membership Luis Cavazos recently shared a story titled "The Best Membership Training We’ve Had". He started out this way . . .
For the first time, we hosted an incredibly successful Cadre Membership Training in District 5930 on Saturday October 15, 2016 in Harlingen Texas. 
It was interactive and by the time we finished we had most of the answers on what we each wanted to take back to our clubs to implement immediately.

Get Ready Laredo and surrounding clubs!!

It's coming to your area on February 11, 2017 from 8:30 am to 1 pm

Youth Exchange Needs your Help NOW
Exposure to different cultures ranks as one of the most powerful ways to promote international understanding and peace. The Rotary Youth Exchange program provides thousands of young students with the opportunity to meet people from other countries and to experience new cultures, planting the seeds for a lifetime of international understanding.
 
As with any Rotary program, volunteer support ensures success. The Rotary Youth Exchange program is administered at the district level under the supervision of the district governor. Rotary clubs interested in sending or hosting students must coordinate their participation through the district-level program. An effective Youth Exchange program relies on the dedication of Rotarians serving in leadership positions.
 
If the Youth Exchange Program is District 5930 is going to continue to grow and prosper - it needs help NOW. There is a conference at the end of January for interested Rotarians. Details are here - www.scrye.org. More Info on Rotary Youth Exchange
